I Am Your Natural Enemy

Chapter 826

The gradual cultivation is indeed more suitable for daily practice than a sudden burst.

Wen Yan completed his practice and felt his energy surging forth. Although it wasn't the sudden burst from last time, the effect was actually better.

Conversely, without the sudden burst last time, breaking through the boundary, this cultivation might not have proceeded so smoothly.

As his power circulated, he felt an extra strand of energy, flesh, and Yang energy intertwining into one.

Once started, the rest becomes much smoother.

Indeed, it all depends on Bai Jiahui; he truly can't mobilize his energy in this way.

According to his understanding, to achieve the same effect, it's likely only possible during fierce battles.

But in such situations, one cannot cultivate methodically as now and can only use this method when breaking certain boundaries.

After experiencing it personally, Wen Yan realized that many martial artists indeed have a reason for their breakthroughs during intense battles.

No wonder Senior Brother Qin and the others enjoy fighting against people and things, especially balanced opponents.

It's not entirely a personality issue; there are real benefits.

But Wen Yan still prefers this methodical cultivation, step by step.

After finishing his practice, Wen Yan expressed his gratitude to Bai Jiahui and casually asked a question.

"Was the scent I smelled responsible? It was so complex that I can't pinpoint exactly what it was. Is it some divine skill?"

Bai Jiahui's round face flushed slightly. After shooing away the little zombie, she whispered.

"Actually, it's not a divine skill; it's just the scent of things I've smelled before, released again."

"Oh, a very practical ability! It would be perfect for a perfumer." Wen Yan praised, then casually asked, "What was the thing?"

Since it exists, Wen Yan naturally wants to ask; maybe it's available in the real world.

Using the material directly would surely be better than needing Bai Jiahui's help for every practice session.

Wen Yan looked expectantly, Bai Jiahui hesitated for a while, then honestly spoke.

"There's a place called Snake Valley, where many snakes gather every year after winter passes and spring arrives.

A certain flower grows there, but I don't know its name.

When the flower blooms, it releases a scent that attracts the snakes to live and breed in Snake Valley.

The snake shed skins and parts of snake eggs become the flower's nutrients..."

As Bai Jiahui spoke, the color of Wen Yan's face changed, and he lowered his voice, sounding shocked, his voice slightly altered.

"You mean, that scent is actually an aphrodisiac?"

"I don't know about any medicine; I only recall that this scent is the only one capable of achieving the effect you want."

"..."

Wen Yan quickly checked his body and found no side effects; instead, he felt stronger and more energetic.

"The snakes and flowers in Snake Valley have coexisted for a long time, so there should be no harm. Moreover, I just remembered the scent." Bai Jiahui seemed a bit anxious.

"Indeed, I also don't sense anything wrong."

Wen Yan sensed repeatedly and indeed felt only positive effects.

Thinking it through, he decided it was better to conduct a check to ensure no harm exists. If it's harmless or the influence is negligible, he will continue using it to aid cultivation.

He had previously discussed with Feng Yao and went to Yu State's hospital, using the Scorching Sun Department's channels for a check-up.

The results came out, showing some abnormal values in his indicators, but they were quite normal when compared to the body data of some martial artists in the Scorching Sun Department and belonged to those with particularly good physical fitness.

After comprehensive analysis, a trace of unknown substance was indeed detected in his blood.

The substance dissipated quickly; if he had come half a day later, it would have naturally dissolved.

Of course, the detection was not due to powerful instruments.

Typically, substance testing targets a specific component using a particular testing method, with different methods for different components.

Detecting unknown substances without prior records relies on instruments and a scientific research professional, achieving results in less than half a day.

Unfortunately, the substance dissipated too fast, leaving no time for further testing.

It can only be confirmed that at such a natural dissipation rate, at least for Wen Yan, there is no harm.

However, according to Wen Yan's described effect, there may be certain side effects for ordinary people.

If the effective component is extracted and a method for artificial synthesis found, even if the effect is reduced, a means of positive utilization can still be found.

"Bro, trust me, get some more, and let me take some more blood.

Not much, 800cc is enough for me to separate the component; this amount is no big deal for you.

If I can determine the molecular formula and structure, artificial synthesis is likely possible.

Even if we take a step back and can't produce on a large scale, the cost is high, but some scraps will undoubtedly be plenty for you.

I guarantee you won't run out even with daily use!"

The lab coat-clad research staff from the Scorching Sun Department held Wen Yan's arm, eyes shining with a terrifying glow.

That gaze practically wished to tie Wen Yan to the test bench and insert eight indwelling needles into him for convenient blood extraction.
